Last night I was ripping a cd and the cddb info returned for it was for a different cd. I went to the cddb web site (gracenote/search) and the correct cd is listed. Why won't it come up correctly in audiograbber? Is my only option manually entering all the track/artist info? Could it be that the cd (2004 release) has no id3 tag info?

CD is identified by a number that is calculated from the CDs contents and their properties - not sure exactly what info but things like number of tracks, length of tracks, etc, etc. Thus several CDs will end with the same identifying number on CDDB/FreeDB. However if you press 'Refresh' in AudioGrabber it will cycle through the list of applicable sets of data for each CD one by one.... so hopefully it would eventually come up with the desired set of info...

Hope that helps...
